Classic example of arbitrary Nokia decision making. Couldn't just fallback to the no brainer of tagging with lat/lon if network isn't accessible, could you Nokia?

If you want to see proper stuttering of the media player, try it with a bluetooth headset!
It's absolutely ridiculous, CPU usage can go up to 60% with combined pulseaudio+mediaplayer and it drops like crazy.
If you add to that the fact that playing mp3's is offloaded to the DSP that gives you an idea of how many resources it takes.
Using pulseaudio on such a low power device was a bad idea, and it shows, the device barely cope with it hence the stuttering.

So, Nokia should take the blame

In short, would you guys still recommend N900 as a good overall phone?

But still I think OS should not get to state where it is unresponsive to any user input for several minutes

The common thing in these lock ups were Mappero.
Personally I have setup a script to launch/nice Mappero when it starts so it has a lower (if not the lowest) priority. So sometimes it pauses (usually just before a turn which it tells me of as I pass it), but the system as a whole can keep up.

ETA: Why didn't you just paste the contents above into your conf file? I pasted you the original.
